Q: .How can I open frameless pop up window upon the page loading?
A: To open the popup window upon the page loading you should set thefollowing parameter:
openAfter=0
deluxePopupWindow.attachToEvent(win,'openAfter=0,,,,,')
You can find this parameter in Deluxe Tuner.Q: I am intersted in a horizontal drop down menu.
I need the rollover and selected color of each section in the onmouseover drop down menu to be a different color.
Here is my scenario
link1 link2 link3
All links are white.
On rollover, link1 turns red, and the drop down below is red (if possible can each individual link in the the dropdown rollover to a diffrent color, say pink?)
When you click a link in the link1 dropdown, and go to that page, link1 will now be red (highlighted) while on that page, and link2 and link3 are still white.
Now, On rollover, link2 turns blue, and the drop down below is blue(if possible can each individual link in the the dropdown rollover to a diffrent color, say light blue?)
When you click a link in the link2 dropdown, and go to that page, link2 will now be blue, and link2 and link3 are still white. I also need the flyout menus to be able to be different widths. Say the drop down menu under link1 has short links, then it only needs to be 100 pixels wide. If the sublinks under link 2 are longer, its dropdown menu might need to be 200 pixels wide. In other words, the flyout width needs to be flexible to fit the length of the text in the link.
I have tried other programs, but have found none that can do this. The problem seems to be they cant have different width flyout menus (often this is the case if they are css based).
OR
It is not possible to show a 'up' or highlighted color on a main link when you are on a page that is a sublink)
Does this make sense, and is it possible with your builder?
A: Yes, you can create such a menu using JavaScript Tree Menu.
To use different font colors for the main items you should useIndividual Item styles. And to cerate different color and differentwidth of the submenus you should use Individual Item/Submenu styles.
See the attached example.zip. See how you should use styles.
> I also need the flyout menus to be able to be different widths.
Actually the submenu width is depend on the item's size. You can alsowrap item's text. Set var noWrap=0; or use standard <br> tagsinside items' text:
["|very long text <br> in Item 14","", "", "", "", "", "3", "1", "", "", "", ],
You can set exact width for each submenu using IndividualSubmenu Styles.

> link2 and link3 are still white.

JavaScript Tree Menu has only two states normal and mouseover.
Try to do the following things:
- delete var pressedItem=1; parameter from your data file
- set correct parameter on each page before you call data file, forexample:
<noscript><a href="http://deluxe-menu.com">onmouseover drop down menu by Deluxe-Menu.com</a></noscript>
<script type="text/javascript"> var dmWorkPath = "menudir/";</script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="menudir/dmenu.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript"> var pressedItem=3;</script>
...
<script type="text/javascript" src="menudir/data.js"></script>
You can also set a pressed item using Javascript API:
function dm_ext_setPressedItem (menuInd, submenuInd, itemInd, recursion)
Sets a current pressed item.
menuInd - index of a menu on a page, >= 0.
submenuInd - index of a submenu, >= 0.
itemInd - index of an item, >=0.
recursion = true/false - highlight parent items.
But notice, to use dm_ext_setPressedItem() you should know ID of selected item and subitem.
You can't get this ID after you reload your page. That is why you should write your own code on PHP.
Q: Greetings..... I am new to java script and would like to have a drop down menu that I can use with frames....
I downloaded your program and have created a small menu to try to become familiar with the program and see if I can accomplish getting a menu to display on a new page...... I am currently using Page Mill.
When I created the menus, I saved them as TstBuy and it was saved in the Deluxe-menu folder.
Having read a number of your information displays plus lacking the knowledge of what files and where to place them, I would appreciate any information you can offer as to what files to place in the main Page Mill folder if that is where they go??
As for the data I created (TstBuy), I thought that I would be able to copy and paste that file into the Page Mill page within a text box, but the paste feature was not available...
Thanks for any assistance you can offer..
A: Thanks for your interest in our products.
JavaScript Tree Menu wasn't developed as Page Mill/Dreamweaver/Frontpage extension,BUT you can use it as standard Javascript files.
You can try to export your menu into html page using Deluxe Tunerapplication and then copy the code from the generated html page into your html page.You should click in Deluxe Tuner "File/Export/To HTML". You'll getsuch files:
deluxe-menu.files/
image_files.gif
dmenu.js
dmenu4.js
dmenu_add.js
dmenu_dyn.js
dmenu_key.js
dmenu_cf.js
dmenu_popup.js
dmenu_ajax.js
data-deluxe-menu.js
deluxe-menu.html
There is no need to use all files from the "deluxe-menu.files/"folder.
The description of files you can find here:
http://deluxe-menu.com/description-of-files-info.html
You can delete all files which are not necessary for you.
To install the menu into your html page:
1. open the page in Page Mill/Dreamweaver/Frontpage
2. open html source code of the page (deluxe-menu.html)
3. add several rows of code (<script> tags), For info see:
http://deluxe-menu.com/installation-info.html
You should also copy "deluxe-menu.files/" folder, all image files anddata-deluxe-menu.js in the same folder with your html page.
For example, you'll have such structure:
deluxe-menu.files/
image_files.gif
dmenu.js
dmenu_add.js
data-deluxe-menu.js
your_html_page_from_Page_Mill.html
That's all.
Q: When I run the cursor over the menu, the menu images disappear for usually a split second, but sometimes for several seconds at a time. Is there a way to make the image static or keep it solid when the cursor runs over it?
A: You can have such effect when the page entirely was not loaded yet.
So, images were loaded only for the 1 state and for the other stat were not loaded yet.
If you don't want to have such effect you can use 1 state buttons.
